It's true that things were in a terrible state in the past and this is why the decision was made to wipe it and rebuild completely, one intention being to specifically avoid certain mistakes system wise which had made things difficult pre wipe.

The systems of the previous eras had some pretty glaring errors that actually slowed down development. The new ones that we have, and are primarily finished, were made directly with the goal of quick development. I think they are working so far since horses took a total of a few hours to make minus the improvements.

The work we have done and released should in itself suggest we have stuck with our major goals while keeping a decent level of quality. Most people seem to enjoy what we have done, so hopefully this is less of a reason to worry.
